2. Safety precautions and operating instructions Supplementary information • The present manual is intended as a supplement to already existing documentation (catalogues, product

data sheets and mounting instructions). • The manual must be studied carefully prior to initial commissioning of the equipment. Intended purpose of the equipment • The encoder is a precision sensing device. It is utilized to determine angular positions and revolutions,

and to prepare and supply measured values in the form of electrical output signals for the downstream device. Encoders must not be used for any other purpose.

Commissioning • The encoder must be initialised and mounted only by a qualified expert. • Observe the operating instructions of the machine manufacturer. Safety instructions • Check all electrical connections prior to commissioning of the equipment. • If mounting, electrical connections or any other work performed at the encoder and the equipment is not

correctly executed this can result in malfunction or failure of the encoder. • Corresponding safety precautions must be provided and observed to exclude any risk of personal injury,

damage to material or operating equipment as a result of encoder failure or malfunction. • The encoder must not be operated beyond the limits (see supplementary documentation). Failure to observe these safety instructions can result in malfunctions, material damage or personal injury. Transport and storing • Only ever transport or store the encoder in its original packaging. • Never drop the encoder nor expose it to major shocks. Mounting • Avoid impacts or shocks on housing and shaft/hollow shaft. • Avoid any twist or torsion on the housing. • Never provide rigid connections between encoder shaft and drive shaft. • Do not open the encoder or carry out any mechanical modifications. Shaft, ball bearings, glass disc or electronic components can be damaged thereby and a safe and reliable operation is no longer ensured. Electrical commissioning • Do not carry out any electrical modifications at the encoder. • Do not carry out any wiring work while encoder is live. • Never plug or unplug connector while encoder is live (the bus cover however may be removed or docked

to the basic encoder when live). • Ensure that the entire system is installed in line with EMC/EMI requirements. Operating environment and

wiring have an impact on the electromagnetic compatibility of the encoder. Install encoder and supply cables separately or far away from sources with high emitted interference (frequency converters, contactors, etc).

• When working with consumers with high emitted interference provide separate encoder supply voltage. • Completely shield encoder housing and connecting cables.. • Connect encoder to protective earth (PE) using shielded cables. The braided shield must be connected

to the cable gland or connector. Ideally, aim at dual connection to protective earth (PE), i.e. housing by mechanical assembly and cable shield by the downstream devices. In case of earth loop problems, earth at least on one side.

Failure to observe these instructions can result in malfunctions, material damage or personal injury!!


3. Product family The product family architecture is modular. Depending on what is required from the encoder, the basic encoder and bus covers can be combined at will with the selected bus system. The basic encoders differ in terms of accuracy, ambient conditions and the utilized sensing principle. Bus cover The bus cover accommodates the field bus interface and the complete electronics for processing the measured values. EtherNet/IP communication is performed via the specialized EtherNet/IP-ASIC ERTEC200 with integrated high-performance microcontroller ARM9. Basic encoders Magres / magtivo® provides a 12 bit resolution with 4096 measuring units/turn, utilizes a magnetic sensing principle and endures harsh industrial environments. Procoder / multivo® provides a 13 bit resolution with 8192 measuring units/turn, utilizes a photoelectric/magnetic sensing principle and is the recommended product for standard applications. Dignalizer / activo® / multivoPlus® provides a 18 bit resolution with 262144 measuring units/turn, utilizes a photoelectric or photoelectric/magnetic sensing principle with integrated analog/digital signal conversion and is the product to chose for ultra-precise sensing applications. The bus covers differ by the respectively integrated bus interface. Available bus interfaces: CANopen, DeviceNet, EtherCAT, Ethernet/IP, LIGHTBUS (fiber-optic), Profibus-DP, Profinet, Powerlink, Power over EtherCAT, SAE J1939, SSI. Except for encoders with fiber-optic interface, all encoders enable parameterization by bus interface. Functional principle:

4. Device profile 4.1. Introduction As an application layer, EtherNet/IP uses the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) released by the ODVA. CIP is transmitted as an “encapsulated” protocol in the data section of standard Ethernet frames. Depending on the assignment and type of connection, the data transmission mechanisms UDP/IP or TCP/IP are used.

Fig. 1: EtherNet/IP and CIP levels in accordance with the OSI reference model CIP is an object-oriented protocol. The device characteristics are described by objects (such as a parameter object) which have one or more instances. Each instance in turn has one or more attributes. Attributes describe individual characteristics of objects (such as parameter value or parameter unit). In device profiles, the ODVA defines which CIP objects and attributes have to be supported by a certain device class. In addition, optional and manufacturer-defined objects and attributes are also possible. Baumer encoders with Baumer EtherNet/IP bus cover support the Encoder Device Profile, device type 22 hex in accordance with the “Common Industrial Protocol Specification”, Volume 1 of the ODVA, Edition 3.7, November 2009. Data transmission of CIP messages in EtherNet/IP networks takes place by means of implicit and explicit messages. Typically, implicit messages are smaller data packages for time-critical data transmissions. When transmitting I/O data, implicit connections with long-term viability are generally involved. I/O data is transmitted by means of UDP and uses port 2222. Non time-critical data is transmitted by means of explicit messages. Examples of explicit messages are configuration or information data, which use the TCP/IP transmission mechanism. More detailed information on the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) or on EtherNet/IP can be obtained from the ODVA (www.odva.org).


4.2. Object model

The object model describes the used object classes of the encoder and their mutual relationship. This is defined in the 22Hex device profile of the ODVA for encoder devices and depicted in the diagram below. Objects made available by the Baumer bus cover but which are only an optional component of the device profile are shaded in grey in this diagram.

Fig. 2: Object model of the encoder device profile as a component of the Baumer bus cover The following table indicates the object classes and the number of instances available in each class.

Table 8: Position sensor object, instance attributes


Position Value Signed – attribute 10 Absolute position of the sensor. Zero correction of the preset function is taken into consideration in the displayed value. The unit of measurement for the position value is increments or scanning steps or counts. Position Sensor Type – attribute 11 Depending on the used base encoder, one of the following values is displayed: 01 – Singleturn absolute encoder 02 – Multiturn absolute encoder Direction Counting Toggle – attribute 12 Behaviour of the position data depending on the sense of rotation of the encoder when rotating the encoder shaft seen looking at the flange. Setting CW (clockwise) = rising values when rotating clockwise Setting CCW (counterclockwise) = rising values when rotating counterclockwise The parameter value is saved in a non-volatile memory in case of changes. Measuring Units per Span – attribute 16 The attribute defines the number of distinguishable steps per revolution of the sensor. The value is an indication of the required single turn resolution (“measuring units per revolution“). Values between 1 and the maximum resolution of the encoder per revolution (attribute 42) are admissible. Reparameterization can result in a change of attribute 17 to the value of the equations (1) or (2), if the value of attribute 17 is smaller than the minimum value or greater than the maximum value. Reparameterization deletes the previous offset value (attribute 51), so that the previous position reference is lost. The parameter value is saved in a non-volatile memory in the event of a change. Total Measuring Range in Measuring Units – attribute 17 This attribute defines the total number of distinguishable steps over the entire measurement range. The minimum setting value is calculated as: Minimum value attr.. 17 = Set value attr. 16 (1) The maximum setting value is calculated as: Maximum value attr. 17 = Set value attr. 16 x value attr. 43 (2) If the number of revolutions is programmed to a value unequal to 2n (1, 2, 4, - 65536) then after traversing the sensor zero in a de-energized status, reparameterization must be carried out. The number of counted revolutions is calculated as: Number of counted revolutions = Set value attr. 17 ÷ Set value attr. 16 (3) Reparameterization deletes the previous offset value (attribute 51), so that the previous position reference is lost. The parameter value is stored in a non-volatile memory in the event of a change. Preset value – attribute 19 Offset value – attribute 51 The preset function supports adjustment of the encoder zero at the mechanical zero point of the system. In the event of a “set attribute” at attribute 19, the current position of the encoder is set to the preset value. The internal offset value (attribute 51) is calculated and stored in the encoder. The following rule applies: Preset value (attribute 19) = position value (attribute 10) + offset value (attribute 51) (4) Note: The preset function should only be used when the encoder is at a standstill. A preset must always be carried out after the following attributes have been changed:

• Measuring units per span – attribute 16, • Total measuring range in measuring units – attribute 17

When carrying out the preset function, an offset value (attribute 51) is internally calculated and stored as a non-volatile value in the flash memory, ensuring that the encoder retains the same unchanged position after switching off and back on. The flash memory is typically rewritable 100,000 times. However, despite the high number of possible write cycles, frequent program or event-controlled setting of the preset could foreshorten


the service life. When configuring the control software, a certain amount of care is consequently called for here. The preset can be selected in a range between zero and a value smaller than the set overall measurement range (attribute 17). Velocity Value – attribute 24 The current velocity value of the encoder. The velocity value is read out in the unit “counted scanning steps / second”. Physical Resolution Span – attribute 42 Using this attribute, the physical resolution of the encoder can be read out in the form of scanning steps per revolution. Number of Spans – attribute 43 Maximum number of distinguishable revolutions. The physical measurement range is made up of: Physical measurement range = attribute 42 (Physical Resolution Span) x attribute 43 (Number of Spans) (5) Alarms – attribute 44 Supported Alarms – attribute 45 Alarm Flag – attribute 46 Attribute 44 delivers alarm messages. An alarm is set if the encoder has detected a status which can result in an incorrect encoder position. As soon as an alarm status is detected, the relevant bit is set to logical high. The alarm is automatically reset after 5 seconds. The alarm flag (attribute 46) is also set with each alarm. The following alarms are supported: 0001 - Bit 0: Position error 0002 - Bit 1: Diagnostic error 1000 - Bit 12: Illegal jump detected in the position value. (Jump between 2 position values corresponds to an inadmissible velocity of more than 6200 revolutions / minute) 4000 - Bit 14: Flash error (unable to read saved data) 8000 - Bit 15: No encoder is detected The alarm messages of bits 12, 14 and 15 are defined on a manufacturer-specific basis. Warnings – attribute 47 Supported Warnings – attribute 48 Warning Flag – attribute 49 Attribute 47 delivers warning messages. Warnings are signalled by the encoder if internal parameters of the encoder are out of tolerance. In contrast to alarm messages, warnings do not indicate an incorrect position. Warnings are reset as soon as the parameter which was out of tolerance is restored to the correct value. The warning flag (attribute 49) is also set with each warning. The following warnings are supported: 0010 - Bit 4: Battery voltage is low. Battery exchange is recommended. 2000 – Bit 13: The encoder is operating with default settings. No valid encoder data was found in the flash. The warning message of bit 13 is defined on a manufacturer-specific basis.


The position sensor object supports the following instance services:

Code Service Description 0Eh Get_Attribute_Single Supplies the content of a selected attribute 10h Set_Attribute_Single Changes the value of a selected attribute.

If the value can be stored, it is filed in the non-volatile memory. Table 9: Position sensor object supported attribute services Note: Attributes with “write” access rights are stored as non-volatile data immediately subject to valid write access.

4.6. Assembly Instances The encoder supports 6 I/O assembly instances. I/O assembly instances are also called connection points. A distinction is made between the following connection point types:

- Originator -> Target (O->T). These connection points represent output assembly instances for the encoder

from the viewpoint of the network. - Target -> Originator (T->O). These connection points represent input assembly instances for the encoder

from the viewpoint of the network. These instances contain for instance the position value of the encoder. For cyclical reading of the encoder input data, from the viewpoint of an EtherNet/IP scanner, the following connection types can be used:

- Exclusive owner uses O->T connection point 100. (max. 1 simultaneous connection is allowed).

- Input Only, uses the O->T connection point 254. - Listen Only, uses the O->T connection point 255.

The requirement for construction of listen-only connections is that at least 1 exclusive owner or one input only connection exists for the required T->O connection point.

The encoder supports up to 128 simultaneous connections. These connections can be implemented as class 1 or class 3 connections. Note Instance class 1 connections can only be generated to one input assembly simultaneously.

According to the Encoder Device Profile, assembly instances 1, 2 and 3 are provided for input data. The input data of the Baumer-defined assembly instances 110 can also be used. The object instance 105 is defined as the configuration assembly instance. Use of this assembly instance when establishing class 1 connections is one possibility for configuration of the encoder (see also section 8, Device configuration). The output assembly instance 100 is implemented for use in exclusive owner connections. The following table compiles all assembly instances defined in the encoder.

Table 15: Parameter object, instance attribute


The services - 01h Get Attribute all - 0Eh Get Attribute single -10h Set Attribute single can be used on the instance attributes of the parameter object The following bits of the instance attribute 4, descriptor can be set in the parameter instances of the Baumer bus cover and have the following meaning: Bit 4: The parameter value is read only and can only be read. Bit 5: The parameter value is updated in real time by the device. Note Writable parameter values are saved as non-volatile data in the device after a successful write access. Writing to the internal flash takes place when the new parameter value is distinguished from the old one and is accepted by the system as valid. By means of the scaling attributes (instance attributes 13 to 16 and 21), integer parameter values can be displayed in other formats. The following formula applies for calculation of the value to be depicted: ( Actual Value (Attr. 1) + Offset (Attr. 16) ) x Mult (Attr. 13) x Base (Attr. 15) Value to be depicted = (6) Div (Attr. 14) x 10 Precision (Attr. 21)

Note In the current firmware, only the default units (C = Count for position values) and CPS = Counts per second for velocity values) are supported by the encoder. Consequently the formula (6) always results in: Value to be depicted = Actual value (attr. 1) Parameter instances always contain attributes from instances of other objects (for path see parameter instance attribute 3) as a source. In table 16, the individual parameter instances are named with their sources and important characteristics. The functional significance of the parameter values corresponds to the functional description of the respective instance attributes of the source objects and is described in the relevant sections of the manual. .

Note The device does not have a DNS client and does not transmit the host name in the DHCP request. Using attribute 3 (configuration control) it is possible to set how the device acquires the initial setting of the interface configuration attribute (attribute 5). A change of attribute 3 (configuration control) without error message is immediately stored in the device’s internal flash memory. The following values can be set: 0: The device reads its configuration from the internal flash memory

or from Hardware-Rotary switches. 2: The device acquires its configuration via DHCP (default setting). Note When changing the attribute value from 2 to 0, the interface configuration setting (attribute 5) is also stored in the internal flash memory of the device. For this reason, the attribute value 0 is only accepted if the interface configuration (attribute 5) contains valid values at this point in time. The value of alloc control as a component of the mcast config (attribute 9) has the following meaning: 0: For generation of the multicast addresses, the specified allocation algorithm is used.

6. Commissioning 6.1. Mechanical mounting Shaft encoders • Mount the encoder with the help of the mounting holes and three screws (square flange: 4 screws)

provided at the encoder flange. Observe thread diameter and depth. • There is an alternative mounting option in any angular position by eccentric fixings, see under

accessories. • Connect drive shaft and encoder shaft by using an appropriate coupling. The shaft ends must not touch

each other. The coupling must compensate temperature and mechanical tolerances. Observe the maximum permitted axial or radial shaft load. For appropriate couplings please refer to accessories.

• Tighten the mounting screws firmly. End shaft/hollow shaft encoders • Mounting by clamping ring

Prior to mounting the encoder open the clamping ring completely. Push encoder onto the drive shaft and tighten the clamping ring firmly.

• Adjusting element with rubber buffer Push the encoder onto the drive shaft and insert the cylindrical pin into the adjusting element (customer-mounted) and the rubber buffer.

• Mounting angle Push the encoder onto the drive shaft. Insert adjusting angle into the encoder’s rubber buffer and fasten the mounting angle at the contact surface.

• Stud screw Push the encoder onto the drive shaft and insert the stud screw (customer-mounted) into the encoder’s rubber buffer.

• Spring washer Fasten the spring washer at the mounting holes of the encoder housing using screws. Push the encoder onto the drive shaft and mount the spring washer to the contact surface.

6.2. Electrical connection Ever store and transport the bus cover in the ESD bag only. For electrical connection remove the bus cover as follows: • Release the fastening screws of the bus cover • Carefully loosen the bus cover and lift off in an axial direction 6.2.1. Cabling EtherNet/IP utilizes Fast Ethernet cable (100MBit, Cat 5) composed of four wires AWG22 (white, yellow, blue and orange). There are three types of EtherNet/IP cables:

• Type A – for fix or rigid cabling • Type B – for occasional movements or vibrations (flexible) • Type C – for permanent movements (highly flexible).


6.2.2. Connecting the bus cover The bus cover provides three M12 connectors. Two M12 connectors (D-coded, according IEC 61076-2-101) serve for EtherNet/IP implementation. Shaft / end shaft encoder

These indicate data traffic at the two ports P1 and P2. In case of occasional data traffic (e.g. during ramp-up), the LEDs flash intermittently, but in the event of fast cyclical data exchange can appear as if permanently on. Immediately after connection of the supply voltage, both LEDs carry out a self test with a frequency of 2 Hz.


7. IP address allocation For operation of the EtherNet/ IP encoder, the device must be allocated an IP address. This can be issued statically once only, or can be allocated again dynamically every time the device is switched on. Devices featuring two HEX rotary switches will be allocated their IP address by the following procedure: 7.1. EtherNet/IP bus cover with HEX rotary switches: IP-assignment after Power On

7.2. Allocate IP address with BOOTP/DHCP configuration tool Factory Device default is mode „IP Address over DHCP-Request“ The IP address must be allocated by a DHCP server. This DHCP server (software) can be obtained as freely available software from the Allen-Bradley Rockwell website. www.ab.com/networks/ethernet/bootp.html The DHCP server must be in the same network as the encoder. Carry out the relevant settings under Tools, Network Settings

After installation, a connected Ethernet/IP encoder registers as follows:

Fig. 5:DHCP server tool

Using the Disable BOOT/DHCP button (answer on successful execution: Command successful) this IP address can be statically allocated, i.e. the next time the encoder is switched on and off, no further request is sent to the DHCP Server. The encoder operates from now on with the previously assigned IP address. „IP address out of internal flash“. Note: Please carefully put down any updated IP address in the field provided on the product label (to prevent any future problems in operation in other networks, refer also to annex FAQs.)

RSLinx Classic Lite RSLinx Classic Lite for Rockwell Automation networks and devices is an operating communication solution for a large number of Rockwell Software and Allen-Bradley applications. RSLinx Classic Lite has the minimum functionality required to support RSLogix and RSNetWorx. This version is not commercially available, but is included in the scope of supply of products which only require direct access to RSLinx classic network drivers. RSLinx classic lite can be used for the following processes: • Programming of contact plan logic with the aid of RSLogixp products. • Network and device configuration and diagnosis with the aid of RSNetWorx. • Configuration of Ethernet modules / devices (e.g. 1756-ENET, 1756-DHRIO etc.). • Browsing networks and scanning device information (e.g. firmware version number). 7.4. RSWho RSWho is the main window of RSLinx Classic Lite and is similar to the graphic display of networks and devices in the Windows Explorer. The left-hand window area of RSWho is the directory control area which displays networks and devices. In this example, the encoder previously configured with the DHCP server in the network is shown alongside the IP address.

8. Device configuration 8.1. Introduction On principle, the encoder with the parameters preset in the factory is ready for operation. Despite this, after setting the IP address as described in section 7, it will be necessary to adjust the encoder configuration for the relevant application. The encoder properties which will require adjusting include: - Sense of rotation / definition of the counting direction - Measurement range within a rotation - Total measurement range of the encoder - Matching the encoder coordinate system with the coordinate system of the application (preset value) All the specified characteristics are saved immediately following an error-free transmission as non-volatile values in the device. However, the save process is only initiated if a value is changed. A repeat transmission of identical values does not initiate a save routine. There are 3 independent mechanisms with identical rights available which can be used but which do not each individually have to be used. It makes sense and may be necessary to combine several different mechanisms (please observe the following note regarding setting the preset value). The next 3 sections describe examples of the encoder configuration for each of these mechanisms. Note Matching the coordinate systems using the preset value is not possible in the case of the configuration assembly instance, as transmission of the configuration assembly instance takes place with the Forward Open Frames function while establishing communication. Setting the position value is not customarily linked to the time at which a cyclical connection is established. The preset value can be set for instance by using the parameter object, while all other settings are carried out using the configuration assembly instance.

8.2. Using the parameter object When using the parameter object (class code 0Fhex), configuration takes place over the set attribute single service of the instance attribute (parameter value). In order to check the required setting value, the admissible setting range of the parameter can be previously determined by reading the minimum value (instance attribute 10) and the maximum value (instance attribute 11). As the setting limits of the encoder’s total measurement range are calculated at a certain time from the currently set measurement range within a revolution, the measurement range should be set within a revolution before the encoder’s total measurement range. Fig. 7 illustrates the schematic sequence of encoder configuration using the parameter object. If invalid setting values are written (e.g. setting value outside the setting range of the parameter), the encoder rejects the value with an error message (see Fig. 8, status = 0x03hex). If the set attribute single service is performed without errors, the status 0x00 hex is returned.

Step 2 Setting definition of the complete setting range of the encoder


Step 3 Setting definiton of the counting direction


Step 4 Setting the preset value (matching the coordinate systems)


Note: The preset value should be set at a standstill! Otherwise inaccuracies can occur!


Fig. 8: Record of a faulty set attribute single service From the viewpoint of the encoder, configuration of the setting values (steps 1 – 4 in Fig. 7) can only be carried out only once. From the point of view of the application, it can also make sense to execute steps 1 – 3 for instance after switching on the encoder. The parameter object also offers the possibility of reading out text strings for the parameter names, the parameter unit and a help text from the encoder in compliance with the “Common Industrial Protocol Specification”. The language used is English.


8.3. Application of the configuration assembly instance 105 When using configuration assembly instance 105, configuration of the encoder takes place with transmission in the Forward Open Frame while establishing the connection (see Fig. 9).

Fig. 9: Configuration assembly instance 105 in the Forward Open Frame As only one exclusive owner connection is accepted at any time by the bus cover (see also section 4.6), this connection type can be used, for example, in order to transmit the configuration assembly instance. The data structure of the assembly instance 105 is shown in table 13 on page 22. The data is taken individually from the bus cover in the following sequence: 1. Setting the measurement range within a revolution (measuring units per span) 2. Setting the total measurement range of the encoder (total measuring range in measuring units) 3. Setting the definition of the counting direction (direction counting toggle) Transfer of the configuration data takes place internally in the device via the parameter object. This ensures that the transfer of configuration values takes place after the same checks as with direct utilization of the parameter object (see section 8.2).


If an error is detected in the data of the configuration assembly instance, no connection is established. The connection is rejected on the part of the encoder with a connection failure frame (see Fig. 10, status = 0x01, additional status = 0x0118).

Fig. 10: Connection failure frame due to incorrect value in the assembly instance 105 Note Even with incorrect data in assembly instance 105, a part of the configuration data may have become effective! If for instance an incorrect value were written for the counting direction, but the values for setting the measurement range within a revolution and for setting the total measurement range of the sensor were still valid, then these two values would already have been accepted by the encoder before the connection was rejected.


When setting the preset value (matching the coordinate systems), note that the preset value has to be performed again with each change of the measurement range setting within a revolution, or of the encoder’s total measurement range (see section 4.4). For this reason, when using the assembly instance 105 for encoder configuration, ensure that before first setting the preset value (matching the coordinate system) error-free transmission of the assembly instance 105 has taken place at least once. From the point of view of the encoder, it is also the case for utilization of the configuration assembly instance that the encoder configuration only has to be transmitted once. From the point of view of the application, transmission must take place at least with each exclusive owner connection. 8.4. Direct application of the position sensor object The procedure for direct utilization of the position sensor object to configure the encoder only differs marginally from utilization of the parameter object (see section 8.2). Configuration takes place by means of the set attribute single service of the relevant instance attribute of the position sensor object (23hex). Direct writing of the position sensor object uses the same control functions for data checking as the parameter object. If invalid setting values are written (e.g. setting value outside the setting range of the attribute), the sensor rejects the value with an error message. (See also Fig. 8, status = 0x03hex). In the event of error-free execution of the set attribute single service, the status 0x00 hex is returned. From the point of view of the encoder, the configuration of setting values (steps 1 – 4 in Fig. 11) only needs to be performed once. However, from the point of view of the application, it may make sense for example to carry out steps 1- 3 every time the encoder is switched on.

FAQ‘s 11.1. Device not responding / IP address unknown Device operation mode „IP address out of internal flash“. The IP address is saved in the flash but unknown. Encoder is not recognised in RSLinx. (Device not responding to PING command) Troubleshooting:

• Carefully undock bus cover from basic encoder. • Switch on bus cover. Status indicator LED is red. • Bus cover is in mode „IP address over DHCP request“. • Assign bus address as described in chapter 7.2. • Press „Enable DHCP“. • Device logs on with „Command successful“. • Redock cover onto the basic encoder. • Device is now back to mode „IP address over DHCP request“

Devices with rotary switches:

• Carefully undock bus cover from basic encoder. • Rotary switch setting unequally 00, for example 22. • Device now in mode „IP address by HEX rotary switch“. • In the present example, the encoder will respond again to address 192.168.1.22 .
